Something new to sell

[Mark Winlund]

I thought I'd contribute a potential product to the group.. personalized toothpicks. Think of the status you will obtain when you casually display your very own personalized toothpick. Make big money! Retire early!

Great idea. That way when you loan it to somebody they'll know who to return it to.

[Brian Robison]

Umm, you can keep it.

[Kim Vellore]

That's a cool retirement plan Mark, I always loose my toothpick when I lend them at parties. I'll be the first to get one when it hits the shelves at Target or Costco.... Hope you got my name covered.

Haahahah

Where will you put the required FDA warning, "NOT FOR ORAL USE. THIS PRODUCT IS ONLY FOR PROMOTIONAL USE BY PERSONS OVER 18 YEARS OF AGE."

[John Lewandowski]

I see something on the other side. Does it say "Made in China"?

[Kim Vellore]

It says Call Dr.***** for all your dental needs...
or It is about time to get your teeth cleaned

Actually, it's our salesman's last name. This was a laser engraved item, done with Universal's rotary attachment. Getting the system to engrave it was a bit tricky, since the system will only accept a 0.11" diameter minimum, and the toothpick is only 0.050" in diameter.

I suggest making a pick jig. Er, how much would one charge for these little jewels?

[Mark Winlund]

Oh... at least $5 each... inflation, ya know....

LOL

This is definitely a niche market

[Bill Cunningham]

Wow!!! now 'thats' a sales item who's time has come......and gone Oooo I'm just being picky... However! the next time I offer to buy someone a "pine float" I could avoid looking cheap by personalizing it

[Mike Null]

Bill
You must be as old as me if you remember pine floats.

I like the math. How many are in a box anyhow? Must be a hundred or more..box is what? a dollar. Heck of a ROI there, $500 bucks for a dollar investment and some laser time..all I need is a bunch of customers now and I can retire. Thanks for idea Mark!

I still think the guy Laser Engraving his Thumb is on to something...... Everyone sent to Jail should have a ID Number Lasered to his thumb, would take a while to grow out and give a positive ID...... How about a Bar Code on the thumb for Patience of Hospitals for getting the correct medication..... Snicker.....
